• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    2017 F3 Limited handgrips - what size replacements?

    The bars are 1 1/8" on my F3 base model. They may taper to a smaller diameter at the grip ends. Never had the grips off to check.

    June 6th, 1944

    After reading your bio, and seeing you have some knowledge of WWII, your initial comment shows it was made in a contrary and argumentative way rather than based on ignorance of the date. I do not understand the reason for your initial comment except as to provoke an argument.There are more than...

    2012 RT Won't Start with full battery, keeps resetting computer

    your battery is 6 years old. Time for a new one. As Peter noted, the occasional starting was no help in keeping the battery charged. I suggest buying a new battery and not fiddling with jumping, or trying to charge it, etc. You risk screwing something up. These are very sensitive to proper...

    Cleaning and waxing products

    am a big fan of the Glare polish. Have been using it for a couple years. Follow the instructions, you'll get great results. It's available on ebay or as Yamaha Glare or Honda Glare at the respective dealerships. Use it twice a year on our cars and am very pleased with the results. It isn't cheap...

    I guessing you skipped history class and had no relatives who lived through the war. Or you are kidding-and it is far from funny.

    very little mention of it in the media. Our local paper had nothing. Damn shame, what was gone through then should be remembered and learned from.

    "Restrooms are for customers only"

    I think it was rude and selfish for one person to sit at a table for 4. Especially since the place was "unusually crowded".

    Oil Change - Worries.

    On the 1330 engine, there are two drain plugs one uses an allen head and the other a torx head. They are not the same. There are several youtube videos to watch that will take you through the process. There's a good one by Lamonster. Take your time, you can do this.

    For All You Niken Haters

    For All You Niken Haters

    This is not competition to our Spyders. It is a three wheeled motorcycle that will appeal to a different rider. No storage, thus it's not a touring machine as most of us view our Spyders.

    New Spyder Patent

    It is likely not the under 10K model. That is due out sooner than what usually follows patent drawings. More likely an evolutionary continuation of the Spyder with some changes, maybe shaft drive, and reworked radiator location and cooling? Would not expect to see anything on wheels for a couple...

    Secondary frunk release....

    hey, Pete any chance of a pic showing how you connected it to the release and then routed the cable out to the side? I'm guessing left side on the F3?
